Part. II. 



contriv'd a defign to feize this Packet, upon the report that ran of the rupture 

 between England and Holland. Cafembrot having feen the bignefs of the Packer, 

 gives Wami-ick^ a defcription of it, and fo both together they contrive another qf 

 the fame form and bignefs as neer.as they could. When I crame a-board, I took 

 the Englijli Packet, and lock'd it up in my Bouccha, which is the fort of Cloak- 

 bag that is us'd in that Countrey, and laid it behind my Bolfter. There were two 

 Shallops fait a-board us, wherein there were fixty bags of Silver, containing (orne 

 fifty, fome a hunder'd Tomans a piece. Thefe bags they unladed very leifurcly to 

 gain time, watching when I would be gone to bed. But when they faw that I did 

 not go to reft, the Dutch confulted together, and agreed to let fall a bag of Tomans 

 into the Sea 5 and fo came all a-board, fending away a Shallop to Gomron for a Di- 

 ver. When I found that the Vefiel would not fet Sail till two or three hours aftejr 

 day-light, I went to reft,my Bouscha lying in the fame place, half out,and half with 

 in- fide of my Bolfter: But when my Servants were gone, and I alone and a-lleep 

 in the Cabin, they cunningly ftole : my Bouccha, took out the Englijh Packet, arid 

 left the other which they had counterfeited, in the place 3 being only fo many 

 Letters of blank-paper. Coming to Sur at. the fixt of May following, I gave the 

 Packet, as I thought, which f had receiv'd from the Englijh Agent at Gomron, to 

 two Capuchin-Friers to deliver to the Prefident at Shy at. But when the Prefi- 

 dent came to open the Packet before feveral of the Company, there was nothing 

 but white-paper made up in the form of Letters ; which when I heard, too much 

 to my forrow, Iunderftood the villanous trick that Fan-Wad^ had put upon me. 

 I wrote a l'mart Letter of complaint to the Dutch- General in Batavia, but finding 

 no redrefs, I was forc'd to undergo the hard cenfure of the Enghjh, who would 

 not permit me to juftify my felf. However, as it is rare to fee treachery go un- 

 punifh'd, the Gomplotters all dy*d miferably. Vdn-Wmk. fell into a violent Fe- . 

 vor 3 and being charg'd with the theft j thinking to defend himfelf with an equi- 

 vocation, that if he took the Cloak-bag, he wifh'd he might dye without fpeak- 

 ing a word, in three days ended his life juft in the fame manner, and at the 

 iame time that he had imprecated upon himfelf. Boz,an his Lieutenant, after a 

 great debauch, going to fleep upon the Terrafs of the Cabin, where he lay for 

 coolnefSj ( there being ho Balifters.,) rolling and tumbling in his fleep, fell down, and 

 the next day was found dead in the Sea. 



The Captain, four or five days after his arrival at Swat, being met in the Street 

 by a Mahometan, who was jealous of his Wife, and being miftak'n by him for 

 one among feveral Franks, that had parted him, and kept him from correcting 

 his Wife fome few days before, was ftabb'd by him in three or four places with a 

 Dagger,and kill'd him out-right. And this was the end of thofe treacherous people.
